Alder Hey Aintree Bowl is a Grade 1 [[National Hunt racing|National Hunt]] [[Steeplechase (horse racing)|steeplechase]] in Great Britain which is open to [[Horse racing|horses]] aged five years or older. It is run at [[Aintree Racecourse|Aintree]] over a distance of about 3 miles and 1 [[furlong]] (3 miles and 210 yards, or {{convert|5490|yd|m|0|disp=out|abbr=off}}), and during its running there are nineteen fences to be jumped. The race is scheduled to take place each year in early April.

==History== The event was established in 1984, and it was originally designed as a consolation prize for horses which were beaten or had been unable to participate in the previous month's [[Cheltenham Gold Cup]]. The inaugural running was backed by [[Perrier-Jouët]], and it was titled the Perrier-Jouët Champagne Cup. For the following three years it was sponsored by [[Whitbread]] and called the Whitbread Gold Label Cup.

Subsequent sponsors have included [[Martell (cognac)|Martell]] (the Martell Cup, the Martell Cognac Cup) and [[Betfair]] (the Betfair Bowl). [[The Tote|Totesport]] began supporting the event as the Totesport Bowl in 2008 and the sponsorship was taken over by [[Betfred]] in 2012 after that company purchased The Tote in 2011. [[Betway]] took over sponsorship from the 2017 running. For the 2023 edition the race was run as the Alder Hey Aintree Bowl as part of the 21st anniversary of the partnership between Aintree Racecourse and the [[Alder Hey Children's Charity]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=GRADE ONE CHASE ON OPENING DAY TO BE RUN AS ALDER HEY AINTREE BOWL IN 2023 PLUS DETAILS OF FRANKIE THE 41ST RUNNER |url=https://www.thejockeyclub.co.uk/aintree/media/press-releases/2023/04/grade-one-chase-on-opening-day-to-be-run-as-alder-hey-aintree-bowl-in-2023-plus-details-of-frankie-the-41st-runner/ |access-date=2023-04-29 |website=[[TheJockeyClub.co.uk]] |language=en-gb}}</ref>

The race was promoted to Grade 1 status in 2010. It is currently held on the opening day of the three-day [[Grand National]] meeting.
